The answer should be A, the daughter isotope is the isotope formed from the less stable one (parent)


hope this helps :)

A daughter isotope is a part of the decay chain process in which the parent isotope undergoes the decaying process in the nuclear reaction and as a result, it forms daughter isotopes. Daughter isotopes can also have their own daughter isotopes if they want.

Consider the following reversible reaction.
andriy [413]

Answer:

No one is correct. The correct expression is:

Keq = [H₂]²  . [O₂]² / [H₂O]²

Explanation:

To build the Keq expression in a chemical equilibrium you must consider the molar concentrations of reactants / products, and they must be elevated to the stoichiometric coefficient.

The balance reaction is:

<u>2</u> H₂O (g)  ⇄  <u>2</u> H₂ (g)  +  O₂ (g)

Keq = [H₂]²  . [O₂]  / [H₂O]²

In opposite side: <u>2</u> H₂ (g)  +  O₂ (g)   ⇄  <u>2</u> H₂O (g)

Keq =  [H₂O]² / [H₂]²  . [O₂]

A compound contains 6.0 g of carbon and 1.0 g of hydrogen and has a molar mass of 42.0 g/mol.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

%C = 85.71 wt%; %H = 14.29 wt%; Empirical Formula => CH₂; Molecular Formula => C₃H₆

Explanation:

%Composition

Wt C = 6 g

Wt H = 1 g

TTL Wt = 6g + 1g = 7g

%C per 100wt = (6/7)100% = 85.71 wt%

%H per 100wt = (1/7)100% = 14.29 wt % or, %H = 100% - %C = 100% - 85.71% = 14.29 wt% H

What you should know when working empirical formula and molecular formula problems.

Empirical Formula=> <u>smallest</u> whole number ratio of elements in a compound

Molecular Formula => <u>actual</u> whole number ratio of elements in a compound

Empirical Formula Weight x Whole Number Multiple = Molecular Weight

From elemental %composition values given (or, determined as above), the empirical formula type problem follows a very repeatable pattern. This is ...

% => grams => moles => ratio => reduce ratio => empirical ratio

for determination of molecular formula one uses the empirical weight - molecular weight relationship above to determine the whole number multiple for the molecular ratios.

Caution => In some 'textbook' empirical formula problems, the empirical ratio may contain a fraction in the amount of 0.25, 0.50 or 0.75. If such an issue arises, multiply all empirical ratio numbers containing 0.25 and/or 0.75 by '4'  to get the empirical ratio and multiply all empirical ration numbers containing 0.50 by '2' to get the final empirical ratio.

This problem:

Empirical Formula:

Using the % per 100wt values in part 'a' ...

              %     =>         grams                 =>                 moles

%C => 85.71% => 85.71 g* / 100 g Cpd => (85.71 / 12) = 7.14 mol C

%H => 14.29% => 14.29 g / 100 g Cpd => (14.29 / 1) = 14.29 mol H

=> Set up mole Ratio and Reduce to Empirical Ratio:

mole ratio C:H =>  7.14 : 14.29

<u>To reduce mole values to the smallest whole number ratio,  divide all mole values by the smaller mole value of the set.</u>

=> 7.14/7.14 : 14.29/7.14 => Empirical Ration=> 1 : 2

∴ Empirical Formula => CH₂

Molecular Formula:

(Empirical Formula Wt)·N = Molecular Wt => N = Molecular Wt / Empirical Wt

N = 42 / 14 = 3 => multiply subscripts of empirical formula by '3'.

Therefore, the molecular formula is C₃H₆

Table Giving Answer

Element Atomic mass % Amount

Mg_24     24                79    18.96

Mg_25 25                10    2.5

Mg_26 26                11   2.86

   

Total                     24.32

Discussion

The method of calculation for this table, which was done in Excel (a spread sheet) is shown below. Assume that there is 100 grams of material of "pure" magnesium. What is it's mass?

<em><u>Sample  Calculation</u></em>

The the sample atomic mass = 24

Mass = % * sample atomic mass

Mass = 79% * 24

Mass = (79/100) * 24

Mass = 18.96

<em><u>Note</u></em>

The other two elements are found exactly the same as the sample calculation.

Then all you do is add the 3 masses together.

Answer

The mass of Mg to 1 decimal place is 24.3 <<<< Answer.
